Our quiet and comfortable waterfront home boasts sweeping views of Hood Canal, a newly remodeled kitchen, and room for up to 12 guests. Stairs lead to a private beach which offers miles of beach combing. You can watch abundant marine wildlife and birds from the expansive deck overlooking the water.

Жилье

The house is two stories, with a galley kitchen, hardwood floors, fireplace, and open concept living and dining room on the main floor. The kitchen has been recently updated with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances including dishwasher, gas stove and oven, and microwave. There are 180° views of Hood Canal from the entire main level via a wall of windows. The living area opens onto a large deck overlooking the water. Seasonally, you will find outdoor dining table and chairs as well as an outdoor sofa and lounge chairs and patio heater. (Deck furniture is garaged in the winter). On the main level is a 3/4 bathroom with shower.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms; king bed in the master, queen bed in the guestroom, and a full bed plus two twin beds with trundles in the large third bedroom. Two bedrooms have water views. The upstairs bath has a new vanity, and jetted tub/shower. There is a new full-size washer and dryer in the closet.

Outside is a large fenced yard, outdoor fire pit, 15 foot trampoline, and stairs to beach. There are 64 steps which switchback in 3 runs down to the beach. Guests may use the stairs but assume all risk in doing so and are urged to proceed carefully and use handrails. Guests are also permitted to use the trampoline, but assume all risk in doing so.

At low tide the beach offers miles of walking, beach combing, tidepooling, and wildlife viewing. Seabirds and marine mammals are abundant as are crabs and clams.

There is a bonus room on the lower level of the house. This room has a full-size wall bed. Access to this room is via a separate door outside. There is no bathroom attached to this room.

There is a pack and play, high chair, and baby gate available at the house.

We are inviting you to stay in our dearly loved home and ask that you care for it respectfully, as you would your own. Please respect the privacy and peace of our neighbors. No large parties or excessive noise are allowed. Total number of guests must be accurate in reservation request. Maximum 12 guests total, including children, at all times during stay.

Absolutely no smoking on property.

Cost for repairs resulting from damage to house or property will be the responsibility of guests.

Stairs to beach are steep and can be slippery. Guests are urged to use caution when traversing stairs and do so exclusively at their own risk. The final run of steps to the beach are raised and lowered using a winch. (To protect from damage during high tide) No children under 18 may operate the winch at any time. Standing or climbing on the mobile section of stairs while it is in a raised or partially raised position is prohibited and can permanently damage the stair. Only traverse the stairs when they are fully lowered onto the beach.

Ocean currents can be strong and tides move quickly. Guests assume all risk from participating in beach and water activities, including use of kayaks.

The setting was spectacular. The house was lovely and the deck was spacious and well equipped. We stayed out there most of the time. Having beach access was a bonus. This home met all of our expectations and then some. An idyllic place.

Such a wonderful spot! The house is just as wonderful in person as it is in photos. We booked Heather's house for my wife and I, our 3 young children (2, 5& 7) and my in-laws for 3 days. Plenty of space for the 7 of us, and a nice front and back yard for the kids to play. The house is set up well for young children. The master bedroom even has a pack and play crib and baby monitor already set up, and the kids' room has 3 beds and is well-stocked with children's books which our kids enjoyed. The back yard has a low fence with gates to keep our youngest from going where he shouldn't. We trusted the older two kids not to venture past the gates to the beach stairway. The beach, which is at the bottom of a private stairway, is full of life. We saw clams, a sea anemone, crabs, a massive sea snail, birds of prey, and even a small pod of dolphins a ways off shore. The water in the shallows was cool, but not frigid. Our kids had a blast, as did us adults. The views from the house are so nice, and are readily seen from nearly the entire main floor (lots of windows), the large, well-appointed deck, and 2 of the bedrooms. The house is roughly 15 minutes from Port Gamble, an almost-too-quaint historical town that has a a few shops that my wife enjoyed browsing and a really great restaurant called The General Store. Slow service, but quality, tasty food. 25-30 minutes will take you to Kingston, and a 35 minute drive will take you into Port Townsend, which is a worthwhile day trip. We'll likely be back next year!

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay! This is such a special place for our family and it makes me so happy to share the joy of the beachhouse with other families!

We are a family of extroverts who love travel, adventure, and new experiences. We love to get away from the city and restore our souls in the peace of the Pacific Northwest beaches and woods. You can often find us exploring tidepools, kayaking, or flying on the trapeze. Sunshine and warm beaches beckon us in the winter months and we love a dip in warm tropical waters just as much as watching the stormy winter ocean at home in Seattle.
